Domain Authority (DA)

Moz's 0–100 estimate of domain strength; not a Google metric but useful for quick comparisons.

Full definition

Moz's 0–100 estimate of domain strength; not a Google metric but useful for quick comparisons.

Concrete Shopify example

Illustrative example: two publications have different DA scores. Compare their topics, audiences and editorial quality before choosing where to contribute.

My take

DA is Moz’s proprietary metric, not a Google metric or a business outcome. Keep it separate from impressions, clicks and actual enquiries.
